“Barely” feels a little unfair. But the games that do require tweaking do tend to require doing a fair bit of research. Often rather daunting research.

Vesktop is great. It even has plugins for youtube adblock and dearrow. For privacy peeps you can also enable the SilentTyping to hide when you are typing and ReplaceGoogleSearch if you want to use a different search engine.

Is that… me?

Not like that.

Counter Strike Source and other old school LAN games.

Then invite friends over and pass the drive around so they can all install games and you can have a LAN party.

I don’t understand this.

If I put on something with video I want to absorb it. There’s more video content in existence than I could ever watch, I always want to watch something worth watching. If it’s something I’ve seen before them I’m rewatching because it was entertaining enough that I want to watch it again. Even if I try to ignore it, it’s good enough that it’ll rope me in.

Put something on and not watch it? Is it boring enough that it’s not pulling you in? It’s just background noise? Then why isn’t it a podcast or something?

If you’re ignoring it then why turn it on? Do you turn on lights in rooms you’re not in? It feels… like something just above brainrot. Like it’s not rotting you, but either it’s not engaging or it’s just background noise (with an unused visual component)

Is this slop or just sloppy? What’s with the little green arm behind the lightning and the weird meaty stego neck?

Yeah I really don’t think they would do that. At least right now, in the middle of the year 2025, valve still seems to be making very consumer-friendly choices.

How can I fix the multi monitor thing?? Whenever I connect my TV screen everything freezes unless I unplug one of my desktop monitors.

Not for me. I… Don’t have leaks? I know where my water shutoff is if I need it.

I like owning.

“Why does there gotta be so many psudo-scientific internet ‘laws’ of common human behavioral archetypes with a half baked Wikipedia entry?”

Because of SmokeyDope’s law.

"If more than two humans ever exhibit the same behavior or particular complex that eventually there will be some armchair academic undergrad who will attempt to needlessly define it just to get to say “complex-fancy-sirname’s law” "

Would have been great if the student said “yes but it will increase another fundamental joy, one that lasts longer than the breastfeeding stage of infants”

History teacher told us that NASA found alien machines on the dark side of the moon.

Midway through his speech he fell asleep in his seated walker, woke up shortly after and then the been rang.

He was neither physically nor mentally fit to be a teacher.

(You’re good, steam deck 2 soon is very unlikely)

Forget that, it’ll have TF3.

That’s really cool! I always wondered how gills evolved out. Now I wanna research this to see how accurate it is.

For a cowboy from a place with no atmosphere you understand atmosphere pretty well… sus…

Photopea is great, but after a certain point it begins to chug. Once you have a dozen or so groups and begin to stack adjustment layers peefomance suffers. A dedicated desktop app just has more power to swing around.

It’s going to take some time to get as proficient in krita or GIMP.

Photoshop and stable nvidia drivers.

I like how Vesktop updates in the background. Discord proper has to close, download the .deb, install, and relaunch.
